Yes Mine works with CC. Buy the phone but do not activate it with AT&T. Have CC send you a sim card under their bring your own phone deal. Unlock this phone this way. 1)With sim card removed turn the phone on. 2) Dial *2767*3855# This will initiate a Full reset for Samsung a157v. 3)Once the phone restarts, Dial #*7337# This will remove SIM lock and reset the phone. 4) Now insert the CC Sim card and restart the phone. Call CC to activate the phone. Worked for me.

hi if its a sim card then you can just put it in the phone and start using it, because the phone is unlocked but if it doesn't work then i think it will be more advisable to take it to the AT&T; store. but i think it should. hope my answer was helpful.

Yes. I have used it with Consumer Cellular for several months with no issues. Consumer Cellular uses the AT&T; system.

This phone will work with Consumer Cellular, but it has to be "unlocked". If you search for a phone that has already been unlocked, then you just pop in your Consumer Cellular SIM card and go. If the phone is still locked, then you would need to look up the web or youtube how to unlock the phone, as each phone requires a different process for unlocking. You would also need an unlock code to unlock the phone. If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask.

Yes.I did have to get a new sim card from consumer cellular to make the phone work.I put in the sim card from my old consumer cellular phone but it was out of date.There's no charge for the new sim card.I used the internet instructions from consumer cellular to activate the phone with the new sim card.

You'll have to first active your simcard then give AT&T; customer service a called to active your samsung mobile phone to the simcard. Hopefully I helped in time.

Yes! Make sure you keep your SIMS card from your broken phone to use in it. This has been an excellent replacement phone for the phone I broke.

As long as you can put a sims card/chip it will work. Mind you that the phone while a good one, is now a couple of years old.

You can keep your old number. Either use your old sims card (if it is originally from at&t;) or when you set your phone up, choose the option of keeping an existing number.

The att micro sim card will work. You will just have to change your apn settings for data.
